Red and blue, just for you

Fine splash shot, but to show a the complementary colour for the strawberry, your background would have been a pale green tone. Or else, keep the blue toned background and splash something yellow/orange into the glass!

Fine abstract arrangement of leaves, but you needed to show more red and not yellow to demonstrate complementary colour contrast.

Very nice shot of the crane, but you could have shot at a different angle and/or cropped a bit tighter to emphasize the orange-yellow complementary colour contrast on the equipment.

Unreal Sunset

Comment:
The red of the sun is brilliant, but the rest of the image appears brown rather than a green that would demonstrate a complementary contrast in this picture.

Complementary colours are pairs of colours that contrast strongly when compared to each other.
The colours in this photo are so desaturated that the effect of complementary colours is lost. Your image demonstrates a duotone effect rather than the effect of complementary colours.

The colours in this photo are desaturated so much that the visual effect of complementary colours is almost lost. Your image demonstrates a duotone effect rather than the effect of complementary colours. Perhaps shooting from a different angle to include more of the orange leaves and/or tighter cropping to the figures would give more colour contrast?

Black and white are neutrals and not colours at all, and therefore they cannot be complementary colours... white shows the presence of light, and black shows the absence of light. Black and white areas next to each other do demonstrate high contrast, but high contrast gives a different visual effect than complementary colours do in a picture.
